International Airports using the Full Body Scanner

Note: Opt-outs are permitted by law at all airports in the European Union

ALA - Backscatter Installed - Unsure if Opt-Out is possibleAMS - MMW throughout, with no WTMD. Opt out allowed and not questioned. Pat down is not as invasive as US or UK.BFS - MMW in place; location and details unknown. Opt-out permitted but may result in a search in a private room.BHX - MMW behind WTMD in lane 2/3; passengers who trigger the WTMD are scanned rather than being patted down. Opt-out permitted but may result in a search in a private room.
BNE - MMW in use. Opt-out not possible.DME - One MMW in the business security area of the international terminal, unclear if opt out allowed. Setup is that WTMD leads directly into MMW - did not ask about opt out but did not seem likely.CGN - 2D: Full Body Scanner at primary lanes. Far left/right lanes & fast track still on WTMD.CPH - MMW at every lane, used only as secondary check if you beep the WTMD.EDI - MMW at the far left end of checkpoint, random selection. Opt-out permitted but may result in a search in a private room.FCO - Test phase II of the L3 MMW scanner with 'new software'FRA - Currently investing in introducing 60 new scanners between May 2015 - early 2016. Some are already in place. Not every lane has Full Body Scanner.GLA - MMW at the left end of checkpoint, used as secondary check if you beep the WTMD. Opt-out permitted but may result in a search in a private room.LCY - MMW in left-most lane at the checkpoint with automatic entry gates.

Opt-out permitted but may result in a search in a private room.LED - MMW - Screener looking at images is right in front of you...LGW - MMW in one lane per checkpoint, behind the WTMD, and if WTMD beeps the passenger is sent to the MMW as secondary rather than a pat-down. Opt-out permitted but may result in a search in a private room. Fast track is safe in both terminals.LHR - T1 MMW near checkpoint exit, random selection. Amex Fast Track is safe but BA fast track is not. All other terminals have MMW in one lane per checkpoint, behind the WTMD, and if WTMD beeps the passenger is sent to the MMW as secondary rather than a pat-down. Opt-out permitted but may result in a search in a private room. Fast track is not safe. The small transit checkpoints at T5B and T5C are WTMD only. T5 First Wing is not safe, with opt out to a private room and all bags checked.ICN - Checkpoints 1 & 3 have one BKSX - Use Checkpoints 2 or 4 to avoid the Full Body ScannerKBP - Kiev, Ukraine - L3 MMW.

International to Domestic transfer checkpoint has one MMW

PIA has been using a MMW with ATR for the past couple months or so. I had the "pleasure" of opting out a couple of weeks ago. They have one WTMD and one MMW, but they were funneling everyone through the MMW.

Does anybody know if BMI has the MMW yet? They were listed in a press release recently that they were going to get one. I get to fly out of there next week and am hoping to avoid the MMW scanner.

Does anybody know what CLT looks like if you're coming in on an international flight and then have a domestic connection? After you clear Customs and go back through security, does that checkpoint have the <whole body scanner>s there?

Is terminal 3 at PHX still clear of BKSX? I'll be down there next week, then again in May. I'm flying DL, and am hoping to use T3 to avoid the choice between glowing in the dark and getting an amateur massage.

I will be traveling around West Coast in April/May so i'd like to know which check points to avoid and which checkpoints are connected air-side.

I am not sure what airlines I will be using, but I think I'll be flying out of either PHX or LAS to San Fran (either airport will do) and from San Fran (either airport) to HNL.

SFO thread is accurate and current. However be advised that International Terminal G only had one lane open at 7am and was directing everyone to <whole body scanner>. So if you fly UA better to use T-3 if you have status.

OAK is also accurate but sometimes you can self-select a lane in T-2 without nudoscope. Pay close attention.

Assuming you mean SJC, they've got Backscatter at their checkpoints, and usually keep those open, while closing the WTMD. I've had to opt-out once at SJC. The other time, they had one lane with the BKSX closed, and one with it open. Easy to SDOO.

As Boraxo said, SFO T3 is safe, as long as you use the UA GM checkpoint or the UA elite checkpoint. The old AA checkpoint is infested with MMW.

They claim passengers can still choose to use the metal detector - guess I'll find out if that's true when I leave in a week. Otherwise I'll be stuck on quite a long greyhound bus route to get home. :-(

For a while tsa.gov was posting all of the places that would be getting AIT, but they didn't for BZN... Is that no longer a reliable source?

what's the latest at DAL and BUR? Is upstairs still WTMD at DAL?
will be flying out of both next week

Not sure about DAL, but Burbank has two MMWs at the WN checkpoint. The AS checkpoint is still WTMD only. I was thru there on 2/29 and the TSOs at the WN checkpoint were friendly, nice and in a good mood. Must have been the leap day.

I still get a kick out of the signs at BUR saying possession of marijuana is illegal.

Hi All I am flying through MIA in July however I have read recent reports on tsastatus.net regarding the use of MMW at Concourse E. I am flying internationally through Concourse E is it possible if I can use another checkpoint at MIA and walk to the Concourse E gates? I know it may seem silly and unpractical(and unlikely), but I'd rather not go through those machines or get the invasive pat down if it came to it.
